Wild Interactions

Well another fabulous week of sightings, but the highlight had to be swimming with common and grey seals over at the Cairns of Coll! Despite getting more than a little cold having only a wetsuit on, it was an awesome experience as two young grey seals came right in close to check me out! The evening was topped of with sightings of two minke whales and a couple of basking sharks including a really big shark!

A sunfish, an unsual looking tropical fish species that makes summer visits to the west coast with the warmer waters


White-tailed (sea) eagles soaring, this trip we were really lucky to watch two of these magnificent birds fishing just of the coastline!



Not forgetting the magic minke whale with sightings continuing to impress =)
